Ah, well I did something similar, bent the bottom wishbone, anti-roll bar and the front shock, replaced all of them and it was fine.

basicly when it was rainning i lost control at 30 into a curb on a corner of teh road letting soemone passed. n broke teh alloys badly. now i replaced the wisebone n trakrod end and hub n the wheel still don't fit stright it still bent. What do u ppl think it could be b4 i have to get it jigged? i been told shock assbober but don't se ehow it can caussed teh 1 inch gap to make the wheel stright.
